@spicymoustache is back at it again with super helpful tips on how to preserve your fruits and veggies to make them last way longer!

  1. For vegetables like spinach, store them in a covered container with a paper towel. This will help absorb the moisture and keep your veggies from getting soggy and going bad.
  2. For stem vegetables like kale, add a little bit of water to a small jar or cup and place the vegetable steps into the water, just like a flower bouquet. This will keep them hydrated and crunchy and last much longer.
  3. To store your fruits, cut off the stems if necessary and wash them in water and some vinegar. Tap them dry before storing them in a closed and sealed container.
  4. For herbs, wet a towel and ring out the excess water. Place the towel in a container and wrap your herbs inside. Close the container, and your herbs will stay fresh for much longer.
  5. Finally, make sure to store all of your fruits and vegetables separately. Also, organize your fruits and vegetables and put the things that will expire first in the front so that you eat those first.
